Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1989, this property is well-maintained and move-in ready, but shows a mix of updates and original features. The kitchen benefits from 'brand-new cooking and cleaning upgrades' (appliances) and granite countertops, but the dark wood cabinets appear to be an older style. The bathrooms are functional but feature dated vanities and light fixtures. While there's updated tile flooring throughout and a newer water heater and mini-split A/C in the great room, the overall aesthetic and some key components reflect its age, preventing it from reaching a 'Good' rating. It's a solid 'Fair' property that could benefit from further cosmetic updates to the kitchen cabinets and bathrooms to achieve a more contemporary feel.
Pros & Cons

High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 9447, living area = 1381.
Great Schools: High School: Sage Creek High School (9/10).
Expansive & Private Lot: The property boasts one of the largest lots in the community (9,447 sq.ft.), offering exceptional outdoor space, privacy, a therapeutic spa, fruit trees, and two storage sheds.
Permitted Sunroom Addition: A valuable permitted sunroom with an electric fireplace extends the living area, providing additional light-filled space ideal for relaxation or entertaining.
Updated Kitchen & Open Living Area: Features an open great room with high vaulted ceilings, a gas fireplace, and a kitchen updated with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and brand-new cooking/cleaning upgrades.

Key System Updates & Easy Maintenance: Includes a newer water heater, a mini-split A/C and heat unit in the great room for targeted comfort, and tile flooring throughout for easy maintenance.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1381, other record living area = 1124.
Partial Cooling System: The mini-split A/C and heat unit is specified only for the great room, suggesting other areas of the home may lack comprehensive cooling, which could be a drawback in warmer months.
Property Age & Potential for Future Updates: Built in 1989, while some areas are updated, other major systems (e.g., roof, plumbing, electrical) may be original or nearing the end of their lifespan, potentially requiring future investment.
Modest Interior Square Footage: At 1,381 sq.ft., the interior living space is relatively modest compared to the expansive 9,447 sq.ft. lot, which might not appeal to buyers seeking larger indoor accommodations.
